JetBrains Launches WebStorm 3.0 JavaScript IDE
22.05.12
JetBrains , a maker of productivity-enhancing tools for software developers, has announced the release of WebStorm 3.0, a JavaScript integrated development environment.
The WebStorm IDE features CoffeeScript support in 3.0, including navigation, completions, refactoring, error-checking and more to help developers take advantage of brevity and readability of the CoffeeScript, JetBrains officials said. CoffeeScript is a programming language that transcompiles to JavaScript.
WebStorm 3.0 also features integration with the JSLint JavaScript code quality tool to enable new inspections to verify code quality. And the IDE also supports Node.JS for editing and debugging server-side JavaScript.
"JavaScript has become one of today's most popular languages, and as such deserves proper, full-fledged support in an IDE," said Alexey Gopachenko, WebStorm project lead, in a statement. "The key thing in an IDE is to enhance developer productivity by offering smart ways to use the latest standards and technologies. By listening to our users, we ensure short, feedback-oriented release cycles so that WebStorm always stays on the cutting edge no matter what new technology comes to the scene."
